The Continental Congress first met in Philadelphia from September to the end of October1774.

• anglaise, littérature.

  3. 1 L’allégorie Dans le Nord et l’Ouest, les poèmes sont encore écrits dans des formes très proches des vers du vieil anglais, avec leurs allitérations et leurs quatre accents. Ainsi, les poètes de cour John Gower (1330-1408), John Lydgate (1370-1450) et surtout William Langland ( Pierre le Laboureur, 1362 pour la première version) dressent un tableau satirique de la société de leur temps et adoptent une conception chrétienne de la vie en union avec Dieu, et la conduite d’une Église pure.

• Le mot "idée" chez René DESCARTES

  agissant pour lors contre ses nerfs d'autre façon que de coutume, elles causent un mouvement dans le cerveau, qui donneraoccasion à l'âme de concevoir l'idée de la soif. à savoir, comment s'y forment les idées des objets, dans le lieu destiné pour l'imagination, et pour le sens commun, comment ellesse réservent dans la mémoire, et comment elles causent le mouvement de tous les membres.

  allele from the mother and a mutated allele from the father. In both of these cases, the child will be a carrier. The child develops the disease only if he or she receives amutated allele from each parent. When both parents are carriers, there is a 25 percent chance that a child will be disease-free, a 25 percent chance that it will have thedisease, and a 50 percent chance that it will be a carrier. Examples of genetic diseases that follow the dominant-recessive pattern include sickle-cell anemi...

• desobeissance civile

  même titre que la res publica ou les Lois. C'est cette sorte de personnification qui va rendre plus difficile la désobéissance : il est en effet plus aisé de désobéir à des normes abstraites qu'à des personnes déterminées. Ainsi Socrate a-t-il pu, dans sa prison, s'imaginer que les lois lui parlaient : « Socrate, que vas-tu faire ? L'action que tu entreprends a-t-elle d'autre but que de nous détruire, nous qui sommes les lis, et avec nous l'Etat tout entier (...) »13(*) ; peut parfois s'ajouter...

• Checks and Balances.

  no political interest has enough power to prevail over the others. In 1997 and early 1998, for example, the Senate refused to take action on many of President BillClinton’s appointments of new federal court judges. Although the Senate’s power to approve or reject federal court nominees is one of the key checks on presidentialauthority, the dispute between Clinton and the Senate meant that there were not enough federal judges to handle the court’s workload. But the system of checks andbalance was...

• Cosmology - astronomy.

  In 1917 American scientist Harlow Shapley measured the distance to several groups of stars known as globular clusters. He measured these distances by using amethod developed in 1912 by American astronomer Henrietta Leavitt. Leavitt’s method relates distance to variations in brightness of Cepheid variables, a class of starsthat vary periodically in brightness. Shapley’s distance measurements showed that the clusters were centered around a point far from the Sun. The arrangement of theclusters was...

• Religion.

  By the end of the 19th century, scholars were making religion an object of systematic inquiry.

In addition, field anthropologists had begun to compile firsthand accounts of the religions of peoples who previously had been dismissed assavages. The stu...

• Light - astronomy.

  Each different frequency or wavelength of visible light causes our eye to see a slightly different color. The longest wavelength we can see is deep red at about 700 nm.The shortest wavelength humans can detect is deep blue or violet at about 400 nm. Most light sources do not radiate monochromatic light. What we call white light,such as light from the Sun, is a mixture of all the colors in the visible spectrum, with some represented more strongly than others. Human eyes respond best to greenlight...

In view of this diversity, it is difficult to define modern art in a way that includes all of 20th-century Western art.

  B1 Acquisition The acquisition phase is the initial learning of the conditioned response—for example, the dog learning to salivate at the sound of the bell. Several factors can affect the speed of conditioning during the acquisition phase. The most important factors are the order and timing of the stimuli.
